Do Not Substitute: This cable is used to lower the CTD - Conductivity, Temperatute and Depth system through the water column from the CCGS Hudson, Canada's largest Oceanographic research vessel. This system is one of the primary tools used by Oceanographers to monitor the ocean for climate change and its effects on the ecosystem. This cable is replaced every 5 to 7 years due to wear, corrosion and shortening due to re-termination. The cable is placed on a specific winch with a base Lebus shell to properly lay the cable on the winch drum and tuned spooling gear to ensure the cable lays properly on top of itself. Any deviation from the above specifications will make the cable unusable causing the cancellation of cruises on the Hudson which supply information for decision makers.
The manufacturer must have at least 20 years of experience supplying similar electromechanical cables to the Oceanographic community.
Full technical requirement forms part of the Request for Proposal (RFP) solicitation document.
